Can you help? Thanks. Well, I just turned to the person sitting behind me busily writing a compiler and said, "Larry, do you exist?" He replied, "In a tenuous form." Joking aside, yes, Larry Wall does exist. Mail may be sent to him at the address lwall@sdcrdcf.UUCP. This does not mean you should expect a prompt reply. Larry is currently being enslaved (oops) kept busy on a project that works on a machine with no outside access. Although I pester him to read his mail, he is extremely busy and does not have a spare minute to do so. If it is extremely urgent that you get to Larry, try sending mail to either me (faigin@sdcrdcf.UUCP) or Mark Biggar (markb@sdcrdcf.UUCP) and we will see that it gets brought to Larry's attention. [Of course, this still does not imply that he will do anything about it -- corporate deadlines can have weird effects on otherwise sane people] Daniel -- UUCP: {akgua allegra ihnp4 hplabs sdcsvax trwrb cbosgd}!sdcrdcf!faigin ARPA: sdcrdcf!faigin@UCLA-LOCUS.ARPA --or-- sdcrdcf!faigin@LOCUS.UCLA.EDU W: SDC, 2525 Colorado MD 91-01; Santa Monica CA 90406; (213) 820-4111 x6393 H: 11743 Darlington Avenue #9; Los Angeles CA 90049; (213) 826-3357
